For many years I have wanted to sponsor a child through Compassion International.  From the day I first heard about the ministry I told myself, and others, that one day I would sponsor a child.  I had prayed for years that God would allow me to be able to do this financially.  And now, for the first time I have the ability to do it!

I am so excited and have spent the past couple of days on the website.  I have browsed through every child thats listed and have found myself overwhelmed and excited yet at the same time heartbroken.  There were so many children that in my head I kept hearing them each saying, “Why not me?”  “Please choose me!”.  One child had been on the list for six months and had not been sponsored yet.  I have since gone back to look for him and find him again but he wasn’t on the list anymore.  My prayer is that someone else decided to sponsor him.

I am now in the praying stage of this process.  This has been a desire of my heart for a long time and I believe that there is a specific child that God wants me to sponsor.  I desire to be sensitive to His leadership.  Right now I only have the money to pay for six months but I am praying that God will provide for me the money to continue sponsoring the child after the six months are over.

Please help me pray about which child God wants me to sponsor!  I am so excited about pouring into a life who otherwise might not have a chance to hear about Jesus, be properly educated, or be provided for medically.
